Northern Red Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 That decision to bowl first looks worse with every ball that misbehaves. Another fine piece of captaincy from the boy wonder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome To The Jungle Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 At least it's not boring. No captain has a lower draw percentage than Root (I don't think) having drawn just four tests. I think that stat really shows how naive we are as a test side. We just can't kill a game. Is this an example of the players, or the captain? Ah well. Lets just go get 'em for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lrrr Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 Laughable on the debate Key and Ramprakash talking about a lack of batters knocking down the door in recent years in 4 day cricket, you mean after the last decade of James Hildreth knocking down the door but now being too old...

wayne allisons tongues Posted December 28, 2019 Report Share Posted December 28, 2019 (edited) Archer needs to start thinking about what he’s bowling. He may take wickets but he’s so expensive and letting game run away from us. Edited December 28, 2019 by wayne allisons tongues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the same person who wanted to bowl first. I'm struggling to think of a captain with less instinct or feel for the game, he's as bad as it gets. One of the most brainless sessions of cricket I've ever seen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Red Posted December 28, 2019 Report Share Posted December 28, 2019 These South African bowlers are clueless. Why would you pitch it up and hit the wide open cracks, when you can bang it in short and send the ball sailing over the batsman's head over and over again? Weirdos. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
